Figured it would be a good idea to make a thread on tips. Little things you've learned in your training that helped. Can be anything. Share your wisdom with martial talk!
I'll go first. Tip: when punching if you try to punch hard you will punch with less force. If you use speed and your body weight you will punch harder than tensing and trying to put tons of power in your punch. In breaking I once couldn't break a board because I was so focused on power. Then My teacher told me to punch faster and use my body and not focus on putting strength from my arms. I broke the board. Same day, just one tip made the difference.
